What is IV Therapy?
The body needs an adequate amount of vital minerals and фnutrients to function properly. Without a sufficient supply of essential minerals and nutrients, physiological functions do not work as effectively as they normally would, and the body is more susceptible to diseases and other illnesses. To help promote sound physiological function and protect the body’s immune system, VIDA Wellness and Beauty offers intravenous (IV) therapy, administered in our comfortable IV lounge.
What Is IV Therapy, Exactly?
With IV therapy, high doses of vitamins, minerals and amino acids are introduced directly into the bloodstream to promote health and bolster the body’s immunity and healing processes. Because the vitamin and nutrient cocktail is introduced directly into the bloodstream, it skips the digestive tract and goes right to work at the cellular level. Studies have shown that IV therapy can have an immediate positive effect on the body’s immune system and metabolism.
It is not always possible to eat the right foods during the hustle and bustle of daily life. Thankfully, IV therapy infuses your body with the exact vitamins and nutrients your body needs. In addition, unlike oral supplements, IV therapy delivers concentrated amounts of nutrients, without causing digestive discomfort or even illness. With IV therapy, you no longer have to count out your vitamins each night. IV vitamin therapy gives you the nutrients and energy you need for VIDA! — for LIFE!

What to Expect During IV Therapy
Before starting IV therapy, patients undergo a baseline blood test to ensure they can tolerate all vitamins and minerals. They will also meet with our wellness physician, so he can review the patient’s medical history and answer any questions. The physician also takes the patient’s vitals to determine the best course of IV treatment.
For patients who would like to integrate IV therapy into their personal wellness plan, an additional blood test is required to provide the patient with a complete nutritional analysis and to determine which toxins are present in the blood. The wellness physician uses this data to create an individual plan for IV therapy as well as any adjunct treatments that might benefit the patient.
The IV treatment is easy and safe. We use a very small “butterfly” needle, or a micro-catheter, to infuse the blood with the prescribed supplements.
The VIDA IV Lounge
Patients receive IV therapy in our relaxing IV lounge, where soothing music, computer access, a massage chair and current reading materials are available. The VIDA IV lounge is also home to an oxygen bar, where individuals can get a boost of the life-giving element, so they feel refreshed and revived.
